12. Give me some examples of how you are stereotyped for being white.
The issue is not that extra goodies are distributed to white people (they aren't); the issue is that goodies are *not* distributed to non-white people. Not that you'll get a cookie for being white, but that Ayisha will be denied one because she's black.

The most important issue, though, is that 1% of the classroom has 99% of the cookies already! If we who don't have so many cookies had more cookies, we might not fight at all! And the people in charge just keep giving more and more cookies to that 1%.
